-    - Signal: the comprehension panel's verdicts improve, and tokens read before a chunk's first commit fall.
-    - Counter-signal: items that move other goals ship fewer per release.

+    - Counter-signal: fewer features and fixes for the other goals ship per release.
    - Why: readability bought by stalling the audience's work costs more than it saves.
